Application/Features Energy-saving programme which washes at 60 °C for lightly to normally soiled whites or coloureds made of cotton/linen. Programme for normally to heavily soiled whites/coloureds made of cotton/linen. Programme for cottons/linen, which is indicated for various wash temperatures. Items which according to their care label are normally washed separately at 40 °C or at 60 °C, can be washed together in this programme. In this way the drum capacity is better used, saving energy.
Before the first wash 1. Open the detergent drawer. 2. Pour approx. 2 litres of water through the detergent drawer into the washing machine.

Dosing depends upon: – the washing’s degree of soiling, – the size of the load – the degree of hardness of the water supply. • If the manufacturer does not give instructions for small loads: for a half load, use a third less, for a very small load, use only half of the detergent that is recommended for a full load. • From water hardness 2 (= medium) upwards, water softener should be used. Detergent can then always be dosed for water hardness 1 (= soft).
